Musical contributions are framed by refugee singers such as Iryna Lazer, INYNA RAZIN-KRAVCHENKO and NATALIIA Kuprynenko and Daniil Zverkhanovsky on the electric guitar.
"Voices of Ukraine" is more than just a reading - it is a haunting portrait of a country, the history and culture of which has come under pressure since Russia on February 24, 2022. The war has not only changed the life of people and the political landscape, but also endangered the cultural identity of Ukraine. So reported [nordkurier.de] (https://www.nordkurier.de/regional/prignitz/reise- through-literature-dichte-der-ukraine-3676907) that this is an occasion for a deep examination of the Ukrainian culture that must be preserved.
cultural importance in times of crisis
The Ukraine conflict is not only perceived as a military discussion, but it also affects the cultural memory of the country. According to Guardini.de, the Ukrainian culture, which has grown over centuries, is attacked by the Russian attackers. They fear the identity -creating power of Ukrainian culture and try to eliminate it. Historical moments of Ukrainian pursuit of freedom and democracy, such as the revolution of dignity on the Kyiver Maidan, are on the brink In their reading,
uplegger and Metzner not only want to bring the beauty of the Ukrainian language into their own, but also invite the audience to deal with the questions of the past and future of Ukraine. After the reading, an open conversation with the participants is offered, which offers the opportunity to share your own thoughts and feelings.
donations for humanitarian aid
The social aspect of the event should be particularly emphasized. Entry to the reading is free, but the audience is asked to provide donations for humanitarian aid for Ukraine. This initiative supports the people who are in need through the war and at best ensures that help arrives where it is most urgently needed. As the Deutschlandfunk Kultur determines, Ukrainian culture in Europe is becoming increasingly important. The music and literature from Ukraine get more attention, which also underlines the relevance of events like this.During the war and the cultural activities in Ukraine are significantly disturbed, the hope of freedom and democratic values remains strong. The reading "Voices of Ukraine" will represent a small but important step in order to keep these values alive and to strengthen the connection to the Ukrainian culture.
